Pups Sanctuary

Pups Sanctuary is a cozy, home based space Veronika and George created together with one goal: to give every pup a safe, comfortable, and genuinely home like experience while their family is away We bring 15 years of hands on experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, personalities, needs and routines. We work as a team, which means your pup has two people looking out for them and providing plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, cuddles, and supervision throughout their stay We share our home with Brando, our friendly 10-year old Morkie (Maltese/Yorkshire Terrier mix), who is gentle with other dogs and enjoys having canine visitors around Our home is filled with plants 🌱, cozy couches, soft blankets, sunny spots to lounge, and plenty of comfortable spaces where pups can relax and settle in. We also have separation gates and multiple areas throughout the home so we can give dogs their own space whenever needed Because we work from home, our pups are rarely left alone for long periods. They can enjoy regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, enrichment, affection, and plenty of opportunities to simply hang out with us and feel like part of the family At Pups Sanctuary, we believe great care starts with understanding each dog as an individual. We’re happy to follow your pup’s normal feeding schedule, walking routine, sleeping preferences, crate routine, medications, and any special instructions that help them feel secure Whether your dog loves long walks, play sessions, belly rubs, following us from room to room, lounging on the couch, or finding a quiet cozy corner for a nap, we adjust our care to their personality and routine Drop-Off & Pick-Up Times: Keeping our home calm and giving every pup a comfortable experience is very important to us. Drop-offs begin at 9:00 AM If you need an earlier drop-off, we ask that your pup stay with us the night before and arrive before 9:00 PM We generally do not accept drop offs or pick ups after 9:00 PM. We understand travel plans can change, and we may occasionally be able to make an exception. Whenever possible, though, we prefer for your pup to enjoy an extra night with us and be picked up the following morning. This helps us avoid late night arrivals or departures disrupting pups who are already relaxed and settled in for the evening Your dog’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always our priority. We want Pups Sanctuary to feel less like boarding and more like a warm, peaceful home away from home We look forward to welcoming you and your pup to Pups Sanctuary! 🐾🌱

Veronika is fantastic! Winston can be tricky, but her patience and kindness with him are exactly what we need from someone watching him. Thank you!

They were great with Cooper and super easy to communicate with. Very responsive, kept me updated, and made me feel at ease. Cooper came home happy and clearly well taken care of. I’d definitely book with them again

Veronika made us feel assured that our dogs were in good hands while we were away on a weekend trip. She sent plenty of pictures of our pups and made sure they had adequate exercise, playtime, and rest. I would highly recommend Veronika to anyone who needs a trustworthy and reliable sitter!

I had a wonderful experience with Veronika, she took tender care of my cat during my travels and payed close attention to his needs. In all the update photos he seemed comfortable and content. She was very communicative and I left the experience feeling like she was the right, trustworthy decision. I highly recommend working with her! She also called after the care to ensure the kitty transitioned well. Also she’s a lovely baker and shared some treats when we met! 🤍🐾

We had a great experience! We were away on a long trip, and she took wonderful care of our pup while we were gone. She was very kind and attentive, sent us lots of updates, and always responded quickly. It gave us great peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. We would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 12, 2026

Veronika and George were great! They watched my dog Flower, who has separation anxiety, for the whole day, and he took to them immediately. It's rare that Flower feels that comfortable with people he only just met. Veronika and George were very thoughtful, having us all meet outside where the dogs would feel comfortable, and asked great questions. I'm glad to have found them and I'll certainly leave Flower with them again!

It depends the service, however each of them has in common freshening the water, serving a meal if needed, and play/ belly rubs time. Everything else depends on particular situation

I will ask for their feeding and potty routine, any allergies or medication instructions and anything specific I need to know about them. On top of it I would like to know how they feel about other dogs, and their behaviors to cover the basis
